Built to be incredibly robust, fast and fun, Striders are used in balance bike racing the world over, as well as by children who just want to ride at a more leisurely pace.
The most popular model is the lightweight Strider Sport which is readily available here in the UK.
The Strider Sport weighs 3kg, making it easy for your child to ride and manoeuvre. It features mini-grips meaning little hands can easily take control and learn how to ride and balance on the bike.
The saddle goes as low as 28cm, which Strider claims is suitable for 18 months plus, but remember every child is different so measure them carefully.
